This model is constructed based on properties of Na+ and K+ currents observed in whole-cell patch clamp recordings of mouse Grueneberg ganglion neurons in acute slices. Two distinct Na+ conductances representing the TTX-sensitive and TTX-resistant currents and one delayed rectifier K+ currrent are included. By modulating the maximal conductances of Na+ currents, one can reproduce the regular, phasic, and sporadic patterns of repetitive firing found in the patch clamp experiments.
